4.4.3.1 Installation directories

By default 32-bit LispWorks is installed in
/usr/lib/LispWorks
and a symbolic link to the executable is placed in
/usr/bin/lispworks-5-1-0-x86-linux
. Similarly, 64-bit LispWorks is installed in
/usr/lib64/LispWorks
and a symbolic link to the executable is placed in
/usr/bin/lispworks-5-1-0-amd64-linux
. However, the RPM is relocatable, and the
--prefix
option can be used to allow the installation of LispWorks in a non-default directory. The default prefix is
/usr
.

Note: RPM version 4.2 has bug which can hinder secondary installations (CLIM, Common SQL, LispWorks ORB or KnowledgeWorks) in a user-specified directory. See RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX not set for a workaround.

Note: the Personal Edition installs by default in
/usr/lib/LispWorksPersonal
. Do not attempt to to install different editions in the same location, since some filenames coincide and uninstallation may break.
